Introduction
Cannon Beach is an Oregon coast village best known for Haystack Rock — a 72-metre sea stack rising off the shore, its base a protected tide-pool teeming with anemones and starfish at low tide. A long, walkable beach of driftwood and bonfires meets a compact town of galleries, bookshops and cafés. Misty, artistic and unhurried, it is the Pacific Northwest's postcard of coastal calm, where the rock watches over every sunset.
